Default Accord - Changing Brake Rotors - Tools/Procedure?

I want to change the brake rotors on my 97 Accord EX 4 Cylinder. Can
I do this with non-air tools and what tools do I need to get the hub
nut off! What is the procedure!

Someone I know tried to do this with a 3/8 inch breaker bar - the bar
broke. He jacked the car up before applying leverage on the hub nut
and had someone hold the wheel in place by hold the brakes. Seemed
like this was not the way to go.

Do you need to use 3/4 inch socket? How do you get the nut
loose.....put the transmission in park, leave wheels on ground, have
long wrench and apply force down toward the ground?
